I think the Hawks are going to lose, because I still believe that there is hope in this universe.

Eric the Mauve posted:Why is Greiss even starting then? Did Capuano learn nothing from what happened literally less than 24 hours ago? Placing "Capuano" and "learn" in the same question rarely returns the answer of yes. At least Tavares can't get hurt today. Isles had 2 dudes score their first career goals last night against Buffalo, I'm expecting 3 more to do it tonight just because.

Who the gently caress cares if Benn and Seguin are homophobes and have poo poo personalities, that's like 95% of hockey players / professional athletes from college age on up. I like them because they are better than the homophobes and assholes that the other teams employ.

mastershakeman posted:It's quite possible they get eliminated by the world's most boring hockey team in the first round so the doom and gloom was justified. Hell, if panarin hadn't had been phenomenally good as a rookie they'd have had a terrible year I'm not saying the meltdowns weren't justified, just comparing the past notion that someone would solve all of Chicago's problems by taking a bad deal for no reason to the "someone could take Datsyuk's contract" idea, and anticipating a similar result.

Who gives a poo poo? I'm just so outraged poo poo was talked about players from another organization. Especially players that aren't anywhere close to the team I follow. In the realm of "professional athletes aren't always the best people," poo poo talking other players isn't even a blip on the radar. Unless you think Benn and Seguin actually feel that strongly about the Sedins, in which case I guess there's cause for concern.

We don't really need a narrative about Benn being a homophobe anyway, since he's already a Dustin Brown Lite and that's plenty reason to dislike him.

Well going back to 2010 it's worked pretty well for Chicago, so it wasn't totally crazy to figure it would happen again. I don't remember any meltdowns either, I think everyone knew the team was stuck with Bickell and were just being sardonic about it. I guess losing Sharp and Saad kind of sucked, but those aren't the best players the team has had to unload either so whatevs, it's how the NHL works.

There's no reason not to call up Jarry since there's no max roster size for playoff rosters. Still expect Murray or Fleury to start game one. Won't officially panic until it's confirmed otherwise. e: quote:GMJR on Penguins' Jarry call-up: "At this point, it is for depth in practice." That doesn't seem too concerning. But then there's this: quote:Just asked GMJR if Zatkoff and Jarry will be the goalies for Game 1. His response: "Too early to tell." Which is very concerning. Ah well, we'll see what happens Ginette Reno fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Apr 10, 2016 |

People didn't mind as much here no, the writing was pretty much on the wall for Sharp especially. And obviously the Hawks still got a get out of jail free card in the form of Panarin, at least for one more year, but it looks like teams are finally wising up that they can wait it out for an actual good player getting cut instead of picking up garbage and then watching the Hawks stomp them. I think the Wings can probably manage ok without Dats as well, as he's been less of a factor lately. Thing is the Wings probably aren't going to be getting favours like a Richards-esque sweetheart deal or salary relief in the near future, and portions of the fanbase aren't going to like that new reality.

The only way anyone would consider it is if they were trying to hit the cap floor, which I don't even know if anyone is in danger of that. It's one thing to wish for that to happen, it's another to expect it. I also wish for a fortune but I don't expect it. Also I disagree with the idea that Datsyuk is less of or not a factor on this team. He drives a lot of the offense they do get with his vision. He's definitely lost two steps, but the mind is still there and he does great things like bouncing in two dozen goals off of shittier linemates

Honestly I'd bet one of Murray or Fleury to be ready, this just feels more like a "well they're injured might as well give them as much rest as possible for now" but if they both have concussions you never know, poo poo can end up taking a long time to get right and a goalie with PCS probably isn't going to be very good. tofes posted:I'm glad the team I like isn't full of a bunch of shitheads The Rangers all seem pretty likable to be honest and haven't opened their mouths to say any real dumb poo poo lately.

Levitate posted:I think if both the Pens top goalies really are injured and won't be starting the series then it's a toss up. Yeah I do still expect one or both of them to be ready. Fleury has been resting for a while, and Sullivan originally said they took Murray out of that game for precautionary reasons which makes it sound like Murray was coming out of that game after that hit whether he thought he could continue or not. They also have until Wednesday or Thursday to rest up some more. I don't even want to think about Zatkoff starting a playoff game, but if it comes to that, oh well. I think the Pens could still win a series with him if they absolutely had to, but it'd be touch and go. He's not as big a disaster as some Pens fans think, but he is obviously far worse than Murray/Maf. He had a 917 this year though so it's not like he's a complete and utter sieve. e: Also at the Islanders lineup for the game tonight. I get resting your guys but it's like they took every NHLer of quality out they could think of. I guess we know what team they don't want to play.

FWIW I would rather the Penguins accept their fate than rush MAF or Murray out there at anything less than 100.0% recovered, because hotbrains are not to be trifled with, that poo poo can gently caress a guy up for the rest of his life. Still think starting Jarry and hoping he starts hot is better than Zatkoff and certain defeat though.

Jarry was a good goalie for the first half of the season. He is worn out as poo poo right now because Clark Donatelli is a bad coach and didn't give him a day off no matter who they had as backup. I think Zatkoff will actually be the better choice at this point.

If Murray/MAF isn't practicing within the next day or two they won't be going in game 1. I'm pessimistic MAF will play again at all this year but with Murray even if he misses game 1 we can hope maybe he'll be back by like game 3. e: it's kinda funny, with all the hotbrain awareness now I wonder if even like 5 years ago this wouldn't have turned out a lot differently with the team saying Murray's fine and starting him and him playing badly and everyone going "lol can't handle playoff pressure."
